Terminator Reboot Will Feature Multiple Time Travelling Robots

[Insideout Ink Demon]

this movie would benefit by cutting out arnold altogether. the shoehorning of "aging flesh robot" just to include him reeks of stupid.

I think one of the books (going back a long time since I read them so I'm probably wrong) went through the issues Skyney had with stopping infection due to yhe flesh not being part of an immune system. So in that cannon its not that outrageous.

The T800 with its Model 101 skin is made for infiltration, it wouldn't behard (for me) to believe that there are variations on this model to help with this. 101 Young, 101 Old, 101 Aging etc

i figure after nailing down sentient AI and TIME TRAVEL, they might have the technology to handle anti-aging robot flesh. i've never read a terminator book (honestly, this is the first i've heard of such things) but this all still kinda avoids my original point that including arnold at all seems stupid to me. if i were someone of power within the making of this, i wouldn't have allowed it to happen.

but, maybe someone disagrees.

well as for including the big guy in the T5; I'd go to my previous post that Terminator is Schwarzeneggar. no point ever making a Terminator TV Show/Movie without him IMO. but thats coming from an admitted Terminator fanboy and Arnold fanboy. Def prefer this option to a CGI Arnold.

As its a possible reboot, we may see T800's without the 101 Model. 102's 103's etc, and the public will be more accepting of other actors playing the Terminator role. I know I wouldnt like it, but I'd me more accepting of it

I think most the Terminator books were late 90's, not sure. Maybe Skynet failed Biology class?

On the one hand, sure. But on the other hand, this line of argument makes it very clear just how stupid it is having Arnie involved at all. What kind of idiot would make your infiltration robots all look and sound exactly the same? The resistance wouldn't need dogs or any other crap to detect terminators. Just a poster with Arnie's face on it and instructions to shoot him on sight. Justifications for different age Arnies only makes the fact that they're all Arnie even more ridiculous.

Hey, at least it's not just called 'Terminator'!

They don't necessarily have to be all Arnold look alikes though. The model number isn't specifically for that skin, its for that model of robot. They probably made thousands of different variations.

He's been in all four.

OT: Why do people feel the need to 'reboot' great movies all the time? The original is a classic, leave it be.

Arnold appearance in Terminator Salvation was actually CGI only. He was a tad predisposed at the time of its filming, being the governor of California and all.

 

[Duffeknol]

At least the Terminator in part 3 tried killing people. In Salvation they just kindof held people down and made scary robot faces at them. A terminator should terminate.

I was pretty sure he still received an acting credit for use of his likeness or whatever. Could be wrong though.

I stand corrected. Sorry 'bout that.

No worries!

Well, if it wants to somehow be even more godawful than Salvation, then it's got its work cut out for it.

But honestly, haven't we had enough of reboots by now? Can we try something new with the franchise?

What, like leaving it the fuck alone?

That would actually be novel by Hollywood standards.

I would like to Quote Boomstick from DEATHBATTLE! now: "...yeah, because multiple Olympic gold medal winning power-lifter
and Two-Time Mr Universe Arnold Schwarzenegger TOTALLY blends in with your average human."

While showing a clip of Arnie from Conan the Barbarian.

 

[SilverStuddedSquirre]

FUCK OFF with the ReBoots!

I don't want to hear anymore until they decide to Reboot ReBoot!

 

[Lazy Kitty]

This really is the decade of reboots, isn't it?
Guess they can't come up with anything original anymore.

 

[SonOfVoorhees]

A reboot isnt needed. It only grew stale because no one wanted to do anything original with the source material. They just continue remaking the first movie. An rebooting does the same thing, remaking the original movie instead doing something completely different. In the comics they had a family group of terminators with a child and a dog. Because that was a good way to hide. The only reason they have Arnie is because he is in the 1st one, they need to get rid of him. You dont even need John Connor in it, you can have other Terminators being sent back to kill other influential people in his life, those that trained him or helped him become a leader.

 

[Hutzpah Chicken]

If the suits in Hollywood are going to re-boot the Terminator series, why don't we go all the way? Let's re-boot Lawrence of Arabia and Casablanca, Dirty Harry, Blade Runner, and True Grit. Oh, wait...

they might only have say 40 Arnie skins in use over an entire war torn USA (possibly over the world)not many printing presses etc about. unless you know where and when and who to photo, cant be emailing pics of Arnold to everyone. if he did become recognisable, that skin would be decomissioned. Movie cannon wise, there have only been 4 101's that we've seen, and we don't know which time theyre from.

I read this, which sounds like a T800 surviving its mission in the past could be the old Arnold.

Chatting to MTV, he said that "Terminator deals a lot with time travel, so there will be a younger T-800 and then [there's] what that model does later on when it gets reprogrammed and who gets ahold of him". So we're going to get more than one version of the T-800 in the upcoming film then.

sorry to be a massive fan boy;
http://terminator.wikia.com/wiki/Cyberdyne_Systems_Model_101#cite_note-0 James Cameron states that "...the model 101s all look like Arnold Schwarzenegger, with a 102 looking like someone else..." in his commentary on the DVD release of Terminator 2: Judgment Day
I think you mean the T800's dont have to all be alike

You know what I would like to see? I have read this one Terminator book I found in the local library along a number of other movie-related books, though I simply cannot find it on the net anymore.

It was written before T2 came out and it started with Skynet already defeated and a group of humans with John Connor at the helm combing through the data left behind in the time machine complex when they find out that Skynet had to experiment a lot with time-travel, and some of the experiments didn't end up as expected.

Case in point: because of some faulty calculations a terminator was accidentally sent to medieval France. The only person the humans had on board who could speak French was a female soldier, so they decide to send her back in time to make sure the misplaced terminator doesn't muck up the timeline, with the added benefit of an actual futuristic raygun hidden inside her body.

It was dumb, but it had an Arnold style terminator fighting knights with swords and maces for god's sake! Who wouldn't want to see that on the big screen!?

 

[Sniper Team 4]

Er...okay, I guess? Look, all I want is my movie set in the future. I want my purple laser guns, mountains of skulls, humans riding in the backs of pickup trucks through playgrounds, shooting rocket launchers at giant flying death machines, and then getting blown out of the car. I want to see that movie. Please please please!

This, just this. God damn it, just let this franchise die, it's over, it's done. Give up, go home.

TECHNICALLY, he was NOT in "Salvation." Arnold gave permission to use his likeness, so his face was CG'd over another actor when they revealed the "new" T-800 model

 

[exobook]

Well if it didn't feature Time Travelling Robots we'd be in real trouble
